As far as i know, there's no Dovecot-2 in apt repositories of Debian 6 (stable).

You are totally right. http://wiki.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries . Curious if anyone has used "testing" repos and had any success. Could be a long long time before its in "stable" . Is dovecot 2.0 really that different from debian 6 to Ubuntu 11.10, 12.04 LTS ?

Re: dovecot 2.0?

I know there has been a lot of bug fixes and that sort of improvements to 2.0. I was really looking to try dsync as I have been having difficulty migrating a Kerio 6.5 mail server mail via imap. When trying to see if dsync was an option i figured out dovecot had that feature in the 2.0 later version.

I'v been having limited success using imapsync to migrate mail. I get all the mailboxes from Kerio, but Inbox. It doesn't map right to the postfix/dovecot maildir, and I do know there is some mapping commands. I just haven't figured that out yet. I'm real close but so far away if you know what I mean.

My inquiry about debian and dovecot 2.0 is all from having this migration problem. And I'm pretty new to postfix/dovecot. Any help you could offer would be wonderful. Much thanks.

Re: dovecot 2.0?

How about setup one more iRedMail server with the distribution which provides Dovecot-2, e.g. a virtual machine in VMware/VirtualBox/Xen/KVM/etc, then try dsync. if it works, try to copy this migrated mailboxes to your Debian server. It works again, migrate all mailboxes if you want.
